Have a Crafty Mother's Day

Hello and a Happy Mother's Day to all!!  I hope everyone is having a great Mother's Day, and can find a way to connect.  I was able to Zoom my mom, along with my brother, sister and all our kids.

I've got a photo heavy post, as I had a super crafty week...now I know why I am getting nothing done, because I've had so much fun with my cards this week.

To create my next 2 cards, I stenciled a panel with Memory Box Modern Flower Power stencil, then cut the panel in half to make 2 cards.  Now, I have a bit of a head start for next year.

I used an image from Perpetual Bliss to pair with the sentiment from Wine Samplers and drew in my own scribbles to indicate the ringing alarm.  Time for wine!

It's graduation season, so I have started on some graduation cards.  I just love this sentiment, from PTI Get Lost.

Funny thing about this card....I was so excited to see that I had a mini panda with a diploma that would be perfect for a graduation card.  After cutting it out, I thought it seemed strange that the panda would have 2 diplomas...then why did the diplomas have leaves?  Yes, it took me a while to realize that the panda was holding 2 pieces of bamboo.  But, I am still going to use this as a graduation card.
